UP No. 4014 and No. 844 Tour Schedules Announced Today

The steam locomotives will join together in a
public display for the first time May 9 in Ogden during Union Pacific's
celebratory event marking the transcontinental railroad's 150th
anniversary. The festivities include recreating the iconic photo taken May 10,
1869, when the last spike was tapped into place at Promontory Summit, creating
America's first transcontinental railroad. Union Pacific no longer has tracks
near Promontory Summit. They were removed to support the scrap metal projects
during World War II.

No. 844 will leave Cheyenne, Wyoming, April 27. It will
make several brief whistle-stops in communities along its route, arriving in
Ogden on April 28. The Living Legend will be on display at Ogden Union Station
through May 11.

No.
4014 will leave Cheyenne May 4 following a 9:30 a.m. MT christening ceremony at
the historic Cheyenne Depot and arrive in Ogden for the May 9 celebratory event
at Ogden Union Station. The Big Boy also will make several whistle-stops in
communities along its route.
